swap from deluxe door panels to camaro panels

hey guys, i sold my old door panels (the deluxe or GTA style) because i changed my interior from black to grey and i need to know if the camaro door panels will fit.. i bought the camaro panels allready(and hardware) and where the door handle bracket holes are on the panels its not completely cut out.. its 3 boxes cut out instead of one big rectanglular cutout like it was on my old door panels.. do i have to swap out to new door handle brackets? ir do i have to cut out the sections of material between the squares in order for the panel to go over the bracket??

heres my ghetto representation of what i mean (-- is where its cutout):
old deluxe 'gta' panels: [------------]

new camaro panels: [--] [--] [--]

You will need the metal bracket for the other door panels. The Deluxe door panels have a different metal bracket, as the arm rests mount differently.
